Ever start making something and then realize, you're doing an older stitch! You've found something that hasn't been done in quite some time or you've made an easy peezy crochet pattern that looks great?
Well I had an afternoon like that. I was crocheting the left-overs from that sumptuous orange yarn I reviewed last month...and I made a really pretty stitch. I might go ahead and show pics of the stitch next month.
I found this
amazing pompom maker...I will be asking my older brother to allow me to hit up a store that has it for less then 10.00 USD. I really could use it to make some adorable <3 shaped pompoms for girly hats and scarves!
Unfortunately I don't have any images on things I've been up to lately(as they are all unfinished goods. Trying a new type of to see if I can streamline my process/make it faster), but I DO have a review fellas and ladies.

Ever use a yarn that was odd? I mean really odd, but in a good way. This yarn would be such an example. It has beautiful flecks of beige and chocolates mixed in with long stretches of heather grey. When crocheting this yarn I honestly had no idea how it would end up. When I gave it the initial tug it didn't budge. I do this with all my yarns when I am learning about a new skein's particular give...so I don't overwork/snap it by accident later on. I found it odd and continued on, crocheting it. I thought to myself 'this is going to be one of those yarns that I gotta lace peg after I'm done isn't it...?'
Well, I was wrong! And gratefully so. As I was making my amigurumi birdy(original pattern) I found out very quickly that it made a luxurious, giving cloth that could take being stretched once it was made into a pattern. I love this style of yarn, and I might go find some in a different brand. Yarn Cloud might just have it, because they are home to alot of interesting yarns and helpful folks. :)
Softness:5/5(it's like knitting rope without all the ropeburn...and I
love it)
Price:3/5(sorry guys, there's like 3 places to buy online, and two of them have very limited stock)
Color:5/5
Ease of use: 5/5(buttery as long as balled first and not used from skein)
